10 Patch Release Note

PCR: 31106 Module: MLD Level: 2

When the device received a version 1 Query packet, it become a non-querier on that interface, even if it should have remained as the querier. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31118 Module: SWI Level: 2

When the TYPE parameter was specified for the ADD SWITCH L3FILTER command, the type was sometimes a different value in the device’s hardware table. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31119 Module: LOG Level: 2

The maximum value that the MESSAGES parameter accepted for the CREATE LOG OUTPUT command was different from the value that could be set with the SET LOG OUTPUT command. The DESTROY LOG OUTPUT command did not release the NVS memory that was reserved for the output. These issues have been resolved.

PCR: 31122 Module: RMON Level: 3

The etherHistoryIntervalStart node in the etherHistoryTable showed incorrect values for the first and last 30 second interval periods. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31127 Module: FIREWALL Level: 2

If a rule based NAT was added to the firewall’s public interface, the firewall forwarded ICMP Request packets even if ICMP forwarding was disabled. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31128 Module: IPG Level: 2

When a large number of directed broadcast packets were received, CPU usage increased up to 100%. This occurred because a log message was generated each time a directed broadcast packet was deleted. This issue has been resolved. Log messages are now rate-limited to a maximum of one log message every 10 seconds for a directed broadcast flow. After the first deletion is logged, subsequent log messages include a counter showing the number of directed broadcast packets in the same flow that were deleted since the last log message.

PCR: 31129 Module: IPX2 Level: 2

A fatal error occurred if IPX was disabled and then re-enabled when there was a high rate of incoming IPX traffic on the device. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31132 Module: DHCP Level: 2

The DHCP server did not take any action when it received a DHCP decline packet. This was because the device only checked the ciaddr field in the packet, and not the RequestedIPAddress option. This issue has been resolved.

PCR: 31133 Module: IPG

This PCR introduces an enhancement that extends an issue that was resolved in PCR 03890, in which switch port entries are only created for special router multicast addresses. It is now possible to specify reserved multicast addresses that will be treated as multicast packets from routers. Use the following commands to configure this feature.
